Ecclesiaste 2:26

RIV

NIV

26 Poiché Iddio dà all’uomo ch’egli gradisce, sapienza, intelligenza e gioia; ma al peccatore dà la cura di raccogliere, d’accumulare, per lasciar poi tutto a colui ch’è gradito agli occhi di Dio. Anche questo è vanità e un correre dietro al vento.
26 To the person who pleases him, God gives wisdom, knowledge and happiness, but to the sinner he gives the task of gathering and storing up wealth to hand it over to the one who pleases God. This too is meaningless, a chasing after the wind.
